I guess I could be considered a HF veteran based on browsing...certainly not posting. I was also on their old ancient forums as well. To be honest, this off-season doesn't seem to be worse than any other in my opinion. August has always been the hardest to me, even before the cap since 80% of the free agents were signed within the first 72 hours. The dynamics have changed but not the boredom. I just want it to be the Traverse City Prospect Tourny because then I know the season is right around the corner.
